Plot summary

This is a Twilight Zone type story that involves five soldiers out on a mission. And they soon find themselves stuck in a foxhole in an apparently deserted camp. Then strange things begin to happen. For one they are surrounded by strange creatures shrouded in black who do not fire on them or attempt to hurt them in any way but still they stay out there watching, almost as if waiting for something. And this, along with other things that happen, cause these men to question weather they are alive or dead. And that is where their struggle begins. Exploring the age old question of fate and if it is something that is written in stone or is it something we as people can affect. One by one, four of these five men give in to fate as it were and walk off into the woods never to be seen again, but Captain Jason Briggs will not give up for any reason and in the end it is up to him alone to fine out if he can truly change his own fate.

OK I guess, but ...

Well the concept was actually a good one, and the acting was okay, so its watchable ... kinda.

OK, my first pet peeve about ALL limited budget films. You can get away with sloppiness in other areas that cost real money but the script has to be solid, and this one just wasn't there. It REALLY needed some tightening up.

The acting was OK I guess. It seemed a few actors had a clue, the others not so much.

And a major issue for the people looking for something they can actually watch ... this movie DESPERATELY needed a technical consultant. Theater allows, even depends on the suspension of disbelief, especially for low budget films, but you can only stretch that so far. No one had a brother that did a stint in the army? Although the clothing was appropriate, the acting was stiff at best. And the constant flood of little things, they mount up after a while. Like soldiers firing their weapons IN CLOSEUP and the dang EJECTOR PORT IS CLOSED. So where exactly were your shell casings going?

Like I said, good concept. Try again, but MORE time in the script, and do not forget some subject matter expert(s).

"McCune, have you got any of that cold beer left?"

It mainly consists of five soldiers in a foxhole discussing the strange events which they are encountering while on a secret mission in some war somewhere. It sounds dull but actually I quite enjoyed this and it held my attention until the end. This was mainly due to the sincere acting from the five main guys. The flashbacks were also interesting. There is some action at the beginning but it is mostly talking. Director David A. Prior is more noted (or perhaps notorious) for action films but this is more a philosophical movie with a melancholy feel to it and as I say it is quite interesting. An unusual and commendable attempt at a different kind of film. A far cry from his 'Deadly Prey and 'Jungle Assault' and 'Mutant Species'!
